STS6 Story's first spacewalk, seen from the flight deck.
It seems to me that a good portion of the wings leading edges can be seen from inside the orbiter.
Of course, there are the deployed payload bay doors in the way and there's an impossible angle to see the front part of the wings.
So, it must have been underneath and not on the side.

What would be interesting is to find the first piece that fell from the orbiter.
